Abby K9

I'm 29 years old, female, and live with my DH and our beasties in Virginia. We're a military family. My DH is a movement control specialist, currently detailed as a recruiter. I'm a medic in the Army Reserve. We have three rescued cats and one German Shepherd. One of our cats came from an "oops" litter, one came from the SPCA shelter, and the third was "dumped" with us when the neighbor decided he no longer wanted a cat after their baby was born. Our German Shepherd was rescued from the county kill shelter. She had been bred from imported parents, trained for explosives detection, and then adopted out after a tooth infection affected her sense of smell. Her original "adopter" dumped her because she was "too difficult". She is now a certified therapy dog and also works as a mascot / PR dog for my DH's recruiting station. In my spare time, I enjoy shooting sports, traveling, living history / re-enactments, dog packing, hiking, and camping. I'm bilingual, English and German.
